Frankly, I am surprised it took me this long to discover this bug, as I am running with the untracked cache for ages now.
But as of recent, I am running more and more long-running commands, mostly rebases to keep what I call "ever-green" branches up to date, where Git for Windows' patch thicket is rebased onto core Git's four integration branches, and when there are no merge conflicts to stop the rebase early, I got this really obscure crash (no error message, no nothing to indicate what it was).
It cost me two full work days to chase this one down.
